Spain battles record wildfires even as the end of a heat wave brings lower temperatures
A resident runs past the flames Monday as they try to put out the fire near Rebordondo village, close to Ourense, in northwestern Spain.

The fires have ravaged small, sparsely populated towns in the country's northwest, forcing locals in many cases to act as firefighters. About 2,382 square miles have burned across Spain and Portugal.
